PRE-GAME [PRELIMINARY FINAL] Brisbane Broncos vs New Zealand Warriors at Lang Park

[Sproj]

It’d be disappointing to lose but not an embarrassment. We’ve come a long way since the spoon year.

We aren't losing, no need to entertain the idea.

 

[Jason Simmons]

We are going to farkin pump these guys. Can’t wait.

I’ll be at Hotel LA at 5.00pm onwards.

Lets gooooooooooo!

Who?

Muppet on 360 and Matty johns on radio this morning said something like we are the team under huge pressure and tipping really tight game that if we don’t win our season will be a failure.

Warriors haven't beaten a top 4 side all year.

They're 0 from 4 against top 4 sides and 6 from 14 against top 8 sides.

We're 3 from 6 against top 4 and 8 from 13 against top 8.

Losing this game given we've had the week off and have been in much better form would be an embarrassment.

I didn't watch the Warriors V Knights game only have seen the highlights and listened on the radio but seemed like alot of soft tries and Newcastle didn't play great.
With that crowd and emotion last week in NZ they would of been on a big high that could of well been their GF.

Read said the Warriors are a chance. He didn't tip them. They are under pressure and it would be a failure at this point. You guys are 12 point favourites in a prelim final.

 

[Foordy]

So who are we likely to get appointed? Please don’t let it be Adam Gee. The warriors have a great record under him while our record is trash.

Gee and Atkins will reportedly be the two refs for the prelims ... Klein demoted to bunker for one of them

 

[vertigo]

Just read that Klein may not be picked as the on ground ref for the rest of the finals series. Can't see that as anything but a plus for our chances of going all the way.

Klein is bad for any team. Most footy fans mutually agree he's the worst of an average bunch.

Consistently makes headlines for the wrong reasons. Good riddance.

How great is that… the two referees named last month as our worst win percentages. Geez.

Atkins was ref for the Storm game and was actually pretty decent for once

Always a coin flip at best no matter the ref though

Hurry up time!

Geez @Santa You are impatient like Rosie is she is waiting for her caturday match

 

[Super Freak]

Omg it's only Tuesday...

Hurry up time!

Just like it was in '15, it's going to be a long ass week.

 

[Super Freak]

Reyno mentioned on the Sunday Footy Show that he got stuck into Walsh a bit at training.

They apparently had a big crowd there and Walsh was showing off a bit, so Reyno got stuck into him to try and keep him grounded.

 

[Kaz]

My Warriors friends in NZ are bitching about the time the game will end.

I was so caring for them saying it's an Australian comp, don't like it piss off.

 

[mitch222]

Will be heading out to the local to watch this one. I still can't believe the overlap of the AFL and NRL - what a joke!

To be honest, the AFL did the Lions dirty here if anything. The NRL was never moving their time slot as they are the dominant code up here not the AFL. The NRL would have done the same thing in Melbourne I would imagine with the different time slots should their games have overlapped on a Saturday. The NRL have already shown their hand to put games on a better time slots to suit fans like the warriors the past couple of weeks.

But, but, the afl keep telling everyone qld is an afl state…

After the Warriors game against the Knights I hope Kevvie has had a not to subtle query about the 10m with Maxwell. They were just blatantly offside for whole sets on their line.
